- the contact region 340 of the conductor arrangement 300 is protected against the intrusion of moisture in the longitudinal direction 102 of the electrical conductor 100 as well as in the direction opposing the longitudinal direction 102. Thereby, corrosion in the contact region 340 of the conductor arrangement 300 is prevented in an advantageous manner. It is especially advantageous that the core 110 of the electrical conductor 100 and the contact element 310 may consist of different materials without a galvanic cell being formed in the contact region 340.
- the first crimp region 312a is provided with the contact member 370 which may serve as a mounting means in the form of a plate providing the eyelet 314 for mounting the conductor arrangement 300.

- the conductor-side sealing region 130 and the contact-side sealing region 150 of the electrical conductor 100 may be tapering towards the contact region 140 due to the respective compression of the sheath, especially due to the tapered geometry of the transition areas 335 and 345.
- a further transition region 113 of the electrical conductor 100 tapers towards the front side sealing region 160 and protrudes beyond the longitudinal end 111 of the core 110 so that a portion of the sheath section 121, in particular the further transition region 113, encloses the front-side longitudinal end 111 of the core 110.
- the projection 122 of the sheath section 121 is entirely compressed by the crimping of the crimp region 312, in particular the first crimp region 312a of the contact element 310, so that a crimp projection 322 seals up and/or entirely encloses the front-side longitudinal end 111 of the core 110. This region thereby forms the front-side sealing region 360 of the conductor arrangement 300.
- Fig. 8 is a schematic semi-transparent side view of the electrical conductor 100 within the conductor arrangement 300 in the crimped state C.
- the first crimp region 312a may be flattened with respect to the second crimp region 312b so that the front-side sealing region 160 of the electrical conductor 100, in particular the respective portion of the sheath section 121, is flattened, i.e. compressed in the direction perpendicular to the direction 102.
- the front-side sealing region 160 of the electrical conductor 100 may be hermetically sealed.
- an additive e.g. a grease or another sealant
- a grease or another sealant may be applied in the crimp regions 212, 312, 312a, 312b, the structural elements 315 and/or the transition areas 335, 345 before crimping so that the additive serves as an optional sealant filling up capillaries in order to prevent capillary action.
- the actual geometry of the further transitional areas 113, 313 can vary depending on the physical location of the longitudinal end 111 of the electrical conductor and/or on the amount of compression used in the crimping process. In either of the two contact configurations, it should be understood that at least a portion of the sheath section 121 is closed off at an end, in particular at the crimp projection 222, regardless of the final geometry of the compressed state of the sheath section 121.
